LAFAYETTE LA -
Suspected illegal immigrant living in Lafayette facing child exploitation charges

Gustavo Ramos Castro was arrested on one count of Indecent Behavior with Juveniles and one count of Computer Aided Solicitation of a Minor. He was arrested and booked into the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center as a result of a joint investigation between the Louisiana Bureau of Investigations Cyber Crime Unit, Homeland Security Investigations, the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office, and the Lafayette Police Department. An ICE detainer has been placed on Castro, which holds him for immigration enforcement review.

"From changing Lafayette's sanctuary policies to assisting us in this arrest, Sheriff Garber and his team are working hard to fight illegal immigration and bring criminals to justice," said Attorney General Landry. "It is important for all elected officials to recognize the importance of cooperating with federal authorities to root out illegal immigration."

To report child exploitation, call the Louisiana Bureau of Investigation at 800-256-4506.
